"The Sou th has Tried Cringing and
Fr. wu lug I<ong Enough.*.>
Jib-om the Chester Heporter.
> The recent plain, frank, and certainly
harmless expression of his sentiments by
the distinguished ex-President has raised
a perfect howl at the Noith and in res
ponse thereto thc weak kneed and time- (
serving among thc presses of the South I
have caught up the refraiu, andar? Baying
all manner of unmanly and unbecoming
things about Mr. 1'avis and bis speech.
The Charleston Nevus aivd Courier, which
is sometimes thought by people out of the
State to reflect the sentiments and opin- i
ions of the white people of South Caroli- ?
aa, joins m the hue and cry as-follows:
It has been our habit to think and speak j
of him with kiudness, and even affection,
as a thoroughly sincere, well-meaning man,
whose faults were of the-head, aud not of
the heart ; but we must say plainly that
Mr. Davis is one of the most troublesome
elements that the South has to deal with
. in its effort to bridge the chasm of war
and secure reunion and peace. For what
ever Mr. Davis says the Southern people
. ate. tel?! responsible. His rash words are
laid at our doors. It is useless to deny or
explain. The answer is, " Oh yes.! You
say what is politic; but Mr. Davis says
what you thins." This was the case with
the Atlanta speech, and it will be the same
with the speech'just delivered.
The Southern people have honored Mr.
Davis, and trusted him. He owes it to
the South io hold his tongue, as the best
service he can render his people.
In our judgment just such stuff as this
has done the South ten thousand times
more damage than all the speeches Jeff
Davis ever made. It shows to our con
Suerors that we don't respect ourselves,
lat we are not worthy of their respect,
and that we are fit subjects for the bppres
sions and indignities their base natures
prompt them to impose upon us. The
South has tried cringing and fawning long
enough. No thrift has followed it. "We
have done ?Yerything since the close of
the war that could be devised in the way
of concession to appease the wrath of our
implacable foes; but it has all been with
out avail. Why ? Simply because the
North knowsrthat it has all been done for
policy; that, whatever the politicians who
are seekir.g place may say, the heart of the
people ia aB true now to that cause for
which they gave and suffered so much as
it was when the colors of the South were^
floating^ the most. bravely. They have"
overpowered us and have made us sub
's1 missive to their authority. This does not
satisfy them. They would crush out of
our souls the love "we feel for the cause
for which we fought, because in that sen
t?ment they recognize an unrelenting ene
my to the "warfare they are waging on
civil liberty itself. They cannot crush out
of ns our heaven-implanted love for free
. dom, and hence they hate us.
To our mind there is but one sentence
in Mr. Davis' speech that even the most
captious Northern Radical could take ex
ception to. That is where he says "we
have been cheated rather than conquered,
and could we have foreseen the results of
the surrender we would have been free to-1
day." Is there any Southern man that
will deny the truth of this ? If the men
of the South bad realizad in 1862 that th?
loss of their cause, meant that they would
be the slaves of slaves, can there be any
doubt that there would have been such ah
uprising as would have carried the Southern
Cross to the top of Bunker Hill Monument,
if so far had been necessary to save them
from the threatened doom ? The South
never realized the consequences of defeat.
It relied upon the lying resolutions of the
Federal Congress, and believed thai, even
if it was overpowered things would go on
as they had done before. In this way she
. was " cheated" to her defeat.
The wild red man of the plains always
abates somewhat of his accustomed tor
tures when his captive deports himself
with unflinching < purage and manifests
no signs of cowarcl crouchiug. Let us
herealter assume that our Northern con
querors have as much magnanimity as the
savage Indian. Let us talk out plainly,
squarely and boldly what we think and
feel, and if they don't like it let them do
what they please to help themselves.
A Rare Specimen of Honesty for a Rad
ical Paper?
We said the other day that Mr. S. S.
Cox had returned his back pay, and that
this was an act which ought to be entered
on the credit side of his balance-sheet
with the public. Upon this a correspon
dent corrected us, and insinuated that Mr.
Cox did not return the money until Mr.
James Brooks died, and he saw a ch.T..
of being elected in Mr. Brooks' place. We
are now satisfied that this insinuation was
unjust. Mr. Cox had many private du
bet, of a very sad nature, to attend to af
ter thc close of the session, but when
these were discharged, he lost no time in
ordering the back pay to be returned to
the Treasury. Upon the whole, we ad
here to the opinion we before expressed,
and 7*> recommend our correspondent " J.
C."-in the language of the period-to
"take a back seat. Mr. S. S. Cox is an
old political antagonist of ours, but an

WHAT A RAILROAD HAS DONE.-The
Atlanta Constitution says of Gainesville :
"Two years ago there were not five
hundred inhabitants, and not a single
house had been built in twelve years : now
there are at least hcenty-five hundred in
habitants, and since then not less than
three hundred houses hare been built !
In 1870 there was less than ?30,000
worth of merchandise, all told, sold in the
place. Last year the sales of merchan
dise footed up the grand sum of $450,000
-nearly a half million.
In 18.70 the assessed value of all thf
property in the town, both real and per
sonal, was $86.000; in 1S72 it was $478,-'
900. (The corporation has not been en
larged.)
.In 1870 there was eight bales of cotton
sold by planters in this market ; in 1S72
there were over twenty-three hundredbales
sold by planters to the merchants hew '
and from three to four hundred shipped
hy planters at this point-making som*
two thousand seven hundred bales in all
shipped from Gainesville last year.

THE ADVERTISER.
"?dgefield, S. C.? Sept. 4* 1873.
Decided Against the Whit? People of
South Caroliua.
Last week wo spoke o?' the probability
of the indefinite delay of the decision in
the catie of Morton, iiiiss (fe Co. against
the taxpayers of South parolina. Since
then, however, tho said decision has been
given, ami of course it is adverse to the
white people of South Carolina-the}'
alone being, to any extent, taxpayers.
Chief Justice Moses and Associate Jus
tices Wright and Willard, all concur in
the decision-one native renegade, with
a white Yankee carpet-bagger and a ne
gro Yankee carpet bagger. A precious
trio of villains, who ought to be hung all
in a row, as Capt. Jack and bissix fellow
prisoners are to be ou the 3d of October.
Pretty governmentthis-hanging wretch
ed unlettered Modocs, and allowing the
Supreme Court bf South Carolina to go
unhaltered !
But let us make it a long time before
we pay this same tax !
The New York Herald spoaks of the
matter as follows :
** Recent advices are to the effect that
one of the Associate Chief Justices of
South Carolina-Judgo Willard, former
ly of New York-dias rendered a decision
in the suit of a firm of bankers here,
brought for the purpose of enforcing the
laying of a special tax to pay the interest
oii certain State bonds believed to have
been fraudulently issued. This decision
is adverse to tho taxpayers, but it is not
at all probable that they will permit the
matter to rest until a final verdict is ren
dored by the Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States Grave questions are on trial,
involving tho integrity of the Legislature
and State officials, and local rottenness is
not likely ti? be faithfully probed by those
who have become infected by its atmos
ghere The people of Sodth Carolina
aye already indicated a cheerful willing
ness to pay their honest debts. The
, world asks nothhnr more. It is reserved
for Ike highest tribunal of the land to
mark the dividing liuo between the true
and the false ; and until this point is de
cided wo need not look for tho bestowal
of much confidence on any doubtful class
of South Carolina securities."
Yielding to the Allurements of the Sex.
Senator Carpenter, of Wisconsin, who
by the grace of Radicalism is President
pro tem. of the Senate of the United
States, han yielded to the allurements of
the sex-t ie fairsex, of course !-and cre
ated a scandal which is just now horrify
ing the Northern people, and amusing
those of the South. Senator Carpenter,
unlike Bill Arp, who has a " feminine
instinct" for no other woman than Mrs.
Arp, has become enmeshed Joy a notori
ous and beautiful member of the New
York demi monde, and is so infatuated
with his charmer that he bas boldly ta
ken her to Long Branch, and appeared
with her there on the public walks and
drives. Mrs Carpenter being at home
in Wisconsin, this conduct on the part
a "Christianstatesman" is, to say the
least of }t, a leetle bit naughty. The big
New York Triune has publicly hauled
Mr. Carpenter over the coals for th
publicly insulting theaniintry, and dares
him, if he does not like the tale, to sue
(tho Tribune) for slander. The Scnatoi
doe? not sue.
This man, who, if death should sud
denly remove Grant and Wilson, the lat
ter of whom is almost dead any. wav
would heroine President of the United
States, has valiantly defended tb* salary
grab-back pay and all-upou the *rrouud
that it was a great moral measure
which members of Congress would
kept out ol' many evil ways; because the
addition of &J,5U0 a year to their salaries
would enable each . >ne of these honora
ble gentlemen to take his wife with hi
to Washington !
What a pity then that Senator Carpe
ter,, with his back pay, amounting
$5,000, could not have afforded to take
his wife with him on his late visit to the
Northern wafering places, Instead of the
"lady" with whom he traveled upon
such terms of intimacy as to occasion
both himself arid his "lady" to be ex
pelled from a hotel at Long Branch. Col

Credit Mobilier thieves-and now Sena

Had the Democrats been in power, an
had they elected such a man as this
the third oilice in the Government, wit
a howl of virtuous wrath would hav
gone up from the moral presses of the
moral Republican party ; butas Senate
Carpenter is in high standing with th
party of all virtue and morality, we mav
be sure that very few words will be ut
toretl by any administration priut i-n
condemnation of conduct whieh ought to
excite the indignation of every turn ol

"A Skeleton of Death in the Midst <
Lifo.*'
Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper
is thus eloquent upon Senator Simoi
Cameron of Pennsylvania:
Simon Cameron is an old man. H
was born before the Nineteenth Ceulur\
He is working now as if he expected i
would die before him. Hut we cannot
help asking ourselves the question
What ur^es this old chap to pur>ue hi
evil work so steadily? Why, alter cor
ruptinjr htsState, is heseekiniralso to cor
rupt the country? He is old enough now
to forego the pleasures of his youth tun
cease carrying elections unjustly. Wt
think it would be good for the countn
should ho assume a virtue though he
have it not, and as it is not necessary for
him to buy his own way into the Senate
to prevent other men from doing il. I
is useless, however, to make any appeal.
of this kind to Simon Cameron. Ile loves
the sins which gave him a career, and bl
will persist in cherishing them. This
hard, gaunt old man is a skeleton ol
death in the midst of life, and weean ex
pect nothing bHtter.from him than that,
as he goes stalking in and out among tin
present generation of politicians, he will
teach them thc tricks of his own success
ful but infamous career.
TH K Boston Post says : " A flor the re
cent exposures in the Republican party,
the Democrats are summoned to stand
firmer than before. By reiterating their
determination to adhere to principles
whose abandonment is the whole cause
of present troubles, they aro doing their
best to testify to that living faith. And
the Maryland Democrats answer prompt
ly to the proclamation of those of Maine,
taking up the noble declaration of the
Ohio brethren and making them the
platform of the Democracy of Maryland
and the Union. In tho face of such vi
tality as this tho Republican journals
assume that the Democratic party is in a
moribund condition. It is reuewiug its
youth instead. Tho Administration is
yet to find that its vigor will cost much
severe exertion to contest. Everywhere
.over the Union the cry of reform is go
ing up,-and tho corruptions of Congress
and the Administration are denounced
by tho people. The Democracy have or
ganized the opposition, and must con
duct it to eventual victory."
?*r- The New York World asks : Must
Radicalism ever be most grievously fi
wounded in the house of its friends? I
Must a party which inscribes highest
upon its banners the principle of "Civil t
Service Reform" be ever constrained to 1
hear such words as these from President '?
Elliot, of Harvard? "We must all bit- ?
terly deplore the mortifying fact that for
more than a generation neither dignity, t
peacefulness, norsocial consideration has c
attached to any appointment m the civil i
servies of tbs United States. The man t
appointed has sometimes adorned the 3
office, but the office baa neter adorned 1
the man." Where are all the "great c
morai ideas" escaped to?

?)R. M. W. ABNEY, Edgeficld C. H
Dear Sir-In reply to your favor bf
2d, will say the Road that wu have built
s far from being a failure, as many have
iuoposed. It is true wo have made some
nistakes in the construction of our
?toad, which others, who intend cpn
itructing similar roads, could profit by.
The main. erra* was in laying down
itrlngeid. Wo had them saned too
ilight ; they should have been G x 8, all
leart,-and instead of spiking them
lown to the cross tie, lot thornton to the
ie, and pin them obliquely, from tho
>uter side of the stringer.
With tho distance -you mention yon
:ertainly can do all the work with a
Wooden Road, and although Iron is a
rreat deal better, still the Wooden Road
s far preferable to wagoning.'
The locomotive we have at present on
mr Road is not sufficient for the busi
?ess. Therefore we have contracted, and
jxpeet in a short time, another of a
leavier class, and greater power. '
We also think a narrow gauge would
lo better, but think it advisable to con
form to the gauge of connecting Roads,
is should you feel able to put down Iron
it any time, it could save a gre u deal by
using the rolling stock of other9Roads.
?md expense of breaking bulk.
We shall certainly continue our Road
in operation, as it comes up to what we
anticipated, although wc made the mis
take of gutting too light machinery for
the business of the Road. For the dis
tance of your Road, our locomotive
would fully do your work.
When we get our new locomotive out
I will inform you, afid if you will conic
out then, you can judge more fully what
we can do. With the present locomo
tion we are moving daily about 30 tons
of freight down and the same up. and
our Road is 13 miles long.
Any further information we can give
you at any time, will take pleasure in
doing so.

Our Trip to Batesvllle.
DEAR EDITOR,-AS it has become cus
tomary for tho?? who visit Batesvllle
from your section, to give you an account
of what they saw and hoard at that young
and flourishing Railroad town, I shall
try to keep nj) the custom by tolling you
a littlo of what I saw and heard at the
late Methodist District Meeting.
Well, on Saturday evening before the
4th Sunda}* I was pressed into servico by
two ladies, both married of course, to
accompany them to Batesville on thc
following morning. Starting from home
before tue break ol' day we were ready
at Pine House for the early morning
train, which we entered, carpet-bag in
one hand and smelling saltsin the other,
feeling as if we had overslept ourselves,
or rather not slept all. After getting
fixed in the train-ladies, carpet-bags,
and "things"' generally-we thought of
taking a nap, but gave up the idea after
falling in with tho courteous and hand
some conductor.
The place of our destination was reached
about half past six o'clock, and wc found
our friends awaiting us. They were very
much surprised at sicing my carpet-bag
and hartshorn, and some of them asked if
I was an Insurance Agent, while others
ask od if I was a doctor, and, last ol'all,
one bawled out, " ile is a preacher. Don't
you see his white cravat?" It seemed
as if all our friends wanted us to go with
them to their.homes, so to avoid being
partial, our little party amiably divided.
After making our choice, we were nut
long in reaching the homes of our friends,
where we washed, combed, dusted, and,
ai thc Yankees say, "tidied" ourselves
generally, then started for the Church,
but not without first paying due respect
to the fried chicken. 0! that fried
chicken would grow on the trees in
Edgefield !
I will not attempt a description of the
nourishing village of Janesville. Suffice
it to say that tho people are not satisfied
at seeing dwellings, stores, hotels and
churches built, hut arc now looking
forward u> the cause ol' education. They
intend to build a High School as an aux
iliary to thc Columbia Female College,
which school will bc under the control
of the Columbia District Conference.
To take every thing in its order, as re
gards the Meeting, i<ovc Feast will come
first. This we attended and beard several
ministers give their idea of religion, and
their experience in embracing it, which
was very solemn and impressive. Th?
Rev. David Derick delivered, at the ixivo
Feast, a very feeling address, which left
linc few tearless eyes in his audience.
Love Feast hoing over, there was an in
termission of about ii ft cen minutes ; and
hen thone who had' left their seas, he
jan to take thom again, lo listen tn a
jcrnion from that great preacher, Bishop
Wightman. Tt was not long before ihc
.'burch was crowded to overflowing, but
)y tho aid of a few ex ira seals, and a few
wa ted in the windows, and another sur
rice in tho Baptist (Viurch, all, I think,
iad the pleasure of hearing tho word of
Bod preached on this day. The Bishop
was about one hour and fifteen minnies
in delivering his sermon, of which wo
seed say nothing than that it was wor
,hy of the position he occupies, and the
'ame he has acquired. The Lord's Nap
ier was impressively administered at tho
nose of the Bishop's sermon, before tho
A-hole congregation. The ROY. S. B.
fonos, President of the Female College
it Columbia, preached at night. And.
igain, as to his sermon, we wij' only say
,hat jt was ver}' able, for he is known
ar and wide as a very prominent niinis
;jr.
Among tho eminent clergymen present,
?asides those 'mentioned, were thu Rev.
jidi Browne, tho Rev. Mr, Kilg?, so well
cnown among ns for his force and origi
nality, and tho Kev. Mr. Humbert. Thc

The Kenn val of Hie County Seat.
MR. EDITOR: What do yon think of
he project in tho minds ol' no ?teonsid
rablc portion ol the people of the 10th
ir Saluda Regiment; as to the propriety
nd practicability of removing tho" Court
louse. Jail, ?fcc , from Edgelield to John
ton's Depot, and mating that, the Coyn
y sent? Tbaf^hero is such a project on
bot may be somewhat startling lie WS to
rou Edgpfield people, but I think it
lothing but fair that you should be made
lequainted with the wishes of a large
najoiity ol' thc people on tiiis side of.tlie
Joan ty iu reference to this matter. We
ire in lor the movement, and will sup
port it with our influence and : votes in
;ho next election.
1st. Because Edgetield is -so very inac
cessible to a very large -majority of the
people of tho loth Regiment, and.John
iton's Depot so accessible by Railroad'to
i great many of us, and to theremaindor
is no farther by our customary way of
traveling than Edgefield.
2d. Because Johnston's is a market
town and shipping point/or the majority
of tho people residing in that large scope
of country reaching from Mountain Creek
to thc Saluda, and being necessitated to
?0 to Johnston's in connection with our
domestic affairs, we could at the same
time attend to our legal and public mat
ters, thereby saving a trip over the abom
inably bad roads leading to EdgefioV..
Sd. Beor.use by changing the county
scat to Johnston's we entertain the hope
that wc could thercbj' break up the very
corrupt and rotten Radical Ring now al
most impregnably rooted at Edjieliold
C. II, for Radicalism, as you must know,
Mr. Editor, is at a very low ebb at John
ston's, and is likely to remain so.
4th Because the people of Johnston's
are Railroad, enterprising, public-spirit
ed, go-ahead men, and our County pride
prompts us to wisli f??j a County seat im
bued with a like spirit of enterprise and
progress.
Wc have other reasons to oller in favor
of this change of the county seat, but
will reserve them (or another - time. In
the meantime, Mr. Editor, think over
tho matter, and then quietly gather up
your Editorial corps, printers, typ'e, press
es, devil and all, and strike out for John
ston's, .where wo will give you a lively
reception arid a wa Pm welcome. The old
Advertiser is ono of the few institutions
of theeountry in which we havo a right
to cherish an honest pride, and let the
County seat be where it may, wo must
have the ever true old Advertiser with
us and of us.
But more anon. And in this matter,
as in all others of a public nature, let us
be prepared to abide
THE VOICE OP THE PEOPLE.
For the Advertiser.
MR. EDITOR,-The signs of the-times
are many hued, but the prevailing ten
dency is downward. We see, on the one
hand, advocates for ?ocial equality be
tween the blacks and whites,-or at least
an advocacy ol' that which must lead to
it,-and we see tho departure from the
old landmarks, that this is a white man'.?
country, etc.-all of which, in their re
suits, will provo degrading to tho white
race. Yet these movements aro headed
by the wise and the great,-the quondam
loaders of the people. On thc other hand
are the masses struggling to keep up tho
superiority of our race. They see, Sir.
at last, that all those ideas of conciliating
the blacks for political purposes, while
they were lowering in tone, have provi d
futile in policy There is no use of at
tempting to disguise the fact, the blacks
will not cast in their lot with us. We
may go over to them if we choose, but
the very instant we should take such a
step, they would make the political issue
.one of races. Why then should wc not
"take time by the forelock" and make
the issue ourselves? Whether tho in
terests ol' tho two races in South Carolina
are identical, or not, ?savory doubtful
question, and it certainly does not be
come us to work for such a cousumma
tion, when the colored race oppose it. It
has the appearance, sir, of
"Meanness and weakness, and a sense of |
woe,
'Gainst which we will* not strive, and
dare not murmur."
If our interests arc the same, the ulti
matum will oe saciul equality-the pre
cursor'of amalgamation. If they bc an
tagonistic, we may assist time iu work
ing out a happy arbitrament. Thc- truth
Ls often unpalatable but it is always ex
pedioilt to know it. Wc must make the
political issue nu issue o? races We must
vi/t'- for A. B. because ho is a white man.
-simply this and nothing more,-provi
ded, always, he be honest and capable.
In this way wc will drive every white
man from the opposite party, and i I' they
be unlit to work with us, at any rate they
cannot work against us. We may hope
too, by such a courae, to enlist the sym
pat li ins anti moral support of the white
universe, which wu will find in the fu
turo is not to be contemned.
" Yet, what though no su<vor advances,
Nur Christendom's chivalrous lances
A ru stretched in our aid?-Bo the com
bat our own.
And we'll perish or conquer more proud
ly alone."
By all means, let us eschew, for thc

reflecting severely upon myself as an

and speaking of mo as a blackguard and
as a democrat in false colors. After read

Her office, and ?n stating that I wished
the name of tho author of tho article,
with a viuw of demanding a public re
traction of tho unwarranted and uncalled
for language used in said communication
in reference to myself, the name of the
writer was given inc, and I then address
ed a note to tho said writer demanding
public, retraction. This retraction ho has
failed to gi ve, and I horuby .proclaim thc
author of the articlo above alluded to,
over tho signature of " CITIZEN," a de

To thc public, I would respectfully say

general exponent of the sentiments and

representative of its infelligeuco and

and
OUR OWN SOUTHERN PEOPLE.
We have, therefore, determined, to tho
best of ou,r ability, to occupy this higher
and wider plane ol' usefulness, and as a
first step toward* doing so, wo abandon
the name of Thc .{fumier News, which
smacks too much of localism, for that of
THE TRUE SOUTHRON.
We shall continue, aa heretofore, to
stand'ii rudy and squarely upon our
principles, ;maintain our independence,
and tb baltic for right and truth against
bllieial corruption, venality and fraud
not swerving from the right through mo
tiveaof crooked policy or fallacious and
ihort sighted expediency.
' Wo receiveno Government pap to help
.us. along, but.look to tho mon. whose
rights and interest* we watch'and defend,
?by. (lay and by- night, ti> sustain us by a
